Japan intends to resume its funding for UNRWA soon. Israel accused about 10 of the relief agency’s 13,000 employees working in the Gaza Strip of “involvement in the attack launched by the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) against Israel last October.” The Israeli accusation prompted a number of donor countries, most notably the United States, to suddenly cut off their funding to UNR WA.

But after several countries recently resumed or increased their funding, including Spain, Canada, and Australia, the agency now has enough “funding until the end of next May”
